Seagull FTP v3.3 Build 409 Stack Buffer Overflow
Description
This module exploits a buffer overflow in the Seagull FTP client that gets triggered when the ftp client processes a response to a LIST command. If the response contains an overly long file/folder name, a buffer overflow occurs, overwriting a structured exception handler.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
